Rust/Patina Cattle Panel Fence

Why This Rustic Livestock Fencing Stands Out

The Aberdeen panels deliver a genuine, time-worn rust/patina finish that only improves with age, paired with the uncompromising toughness of 6-gauge welded steel. This combination gives you rugged, industrial charm that fits naturally on rural properties, acreages or homesteads across Canada. Available premade or unframed — perfect for corrals, pet enclosures, garden supports or eye-catching property lines.

Choose 1"x1" or 2"x2" mesh for tight containment around small livestock, pets or kids' play areas; opt for 2"x6" or 4"x4" when airflow, visibility or lighter weight matter more. Pair with metal framing for maximum fire resistance or cedar for a warmer, classic contrast against snow or prairie grass.

Timeless Character with Serious Durability

The Aberdeen cattle panels are engineered for real-world performance while developing a natural rust/patina layer that gives them authentic vintage appeal. The 6-gauge welded steel wire is left to weather into a rich, varied patina that deepens over time — no paint to chip, no powder coat to fade, just honest aged beauty backed by excellent long-term durability and weather resistance.

Go premade for fast installs on straight runs or choose unframed sheets when you need to work around trees, slopes or odd corners. Mesh openings range from ultra-secure 1"x1" up to open 4"x4" — giving you the right balance of safety, airflow and light depending on what you're keeping in (or out).

Framing options let you tailor the look: kiln-dried pressure-treated KDBT lumber for dependable, economical strength, or Western Red Cedar for natural warmth and rot resistance that complements the patina finish beautifully. In wildfire-prone or fully low-maintenance situations, metal framing keeps everything non-combustible and maintenance-free.

Setup is straightforward for DIYers or fencing crews — panels bolt or clamp to standard posts with ease. The weathered patina means you never have to worry about touch-ups, peeling or seasonal painting. Use them to contain cattle or horses, secure pet areas, build sturdy garden trellises, or define boundaries with bold, industrial style.

Sustainability note: the steel core is fully recyclable at the end of its long life, and any wood framing is responsibly sourced.

The natural rust/patina on The Aberdeen panels forms a protective layer, so the finish continues to look better with age while the steel underneath stays protected from corrosion.
